Perplexity CEO Arvind – Tech giants like Google, Meta, Microsoft, OpenAI and Perplexity are pouring billions of dollars into data centers, with analysts estimating total spending could rise to nearly $1 trillion by the end of the decade. However, Perplexity CEO Arvind Srinivas believes that the future of artificial intelligence will come from on-device AI models running locally. In a podcast with Prakhar Gupta on YouTube, Srinivas said that “the biggest threat to the data center is if intelligence can be packaged locally on a chip that runs on the device and then there is no need to infer it like in a centralized data center.
” The Perplexity CEO said the advantage of the on-device AI model is that it will easily adapt to the user’s preferences because the AI model “will live on your computer. “.
